Our Baby is Having Babies

Lo and behold, Joe & I walk out on the back porch Saturday morning and our baby tomato plant is having baby tomatoes! We. Were. Ecstatic! I could almost already taste that red deliciousness in my mouth. I can't wait to finally slice one up for my first official tomato sandwich of the summer!
In other planting news ... Ashley & I were cruising around town last week and stumbled upon the most adorable bench that someone had designated for the trash truck. As if! So we whipped Ashley's car onto the sidewalk, popped that potentially beautiful bench in the back of her car, and drove off with the widest grins on our faces. With a little tender loving care ... and some shabby chic white paint, she was restored to health. Now this little bench of love sits on Joe & I's front porch with some petunias adorning her top. I love the look and I love even more the story behind it all.
